What is a black moon? July set for Thunder Moon, partial lunar eclipse and black moon

July is set to be a stellar month for skywatchers with the arrival of both a so-called"black moon" and a"thunder moon."

This year, the first new moon of the month occurred on July 2 at 3:16 p.m. EDT, while the second will take place at at 11:12 p.m on July 31, according to the Old Farmer's Almanac. These names—which originate from Native American tribes—refer to the fact that thunderstorms are frequent in North America in July, and the fact male deer, or bucks, experience a rapid growth of their antlers at this time.
